So you want you or your partner to know that you are at six fouls before the sixth foul. Most people would just call that five fouls.

No. We need to know when the sixth is charged. After that, if needed, we're ready to shoot, and have a shooter.

In our little corner of Connecticut, a common "unofficial" signal is to put out one's fist and rotate it, meaning, "This game is getting a little chippy. Let's tighten it up".
